I try to keep it short:

 

We can loan properties which is nice for sure and helps many young players to survive easier and grow faster (even helps old players too!) However, why not having a system to loan weapons and test them? it can be for wars or before making a final decision to buy one... no?

 

All I'm saying is we have AH for weapons, it's great, but being able to test them makes it next lvl! The system we use for properties can work with it and if you're asking "Where should we add it?" I think we can mix it with market 2.0? Maybe...

 

Write your thoughts! Maybe it leads to sth good!

At first, sounded shit.

 

After a re-read, sounds pretty cool actually. Can already loan weapons via collateral but not everyone can afford that. Be cool to stick a red weapon on the Loan Hoose for whatever you feel is viable, and someone rents it for a period. 3 days probably best, maybe 5.

Oh yeah, can you imagine? Both helpful for owner and the guy who rents. It can be a source of income and a good way to do tests if needed.

It's a good idea but you have to remember that each function in the game needs to have a "real life" explanation.

 

For example, you can rent properties because there's an estate agents.

You can buy weapons because there's a weapon shop.

 

What would be the explanation to be able to loan weapons? Where would this function sit?

How would you find weapons to loan? IRL if a gangster wanted to lend a weapon to another gangster they'd just give it to them. Just like what happens right now.

 

You need to fully flesh out suggestions if you want to see them implemented.

Tbh, not everything is that realistic... the weapon bonuses for example... I think having it as a part of bunker may help

Talking makes it perfect, we can do brainstorming and edit it but having it makes it perfect

 

Since you want to do it, let's put it this way:

 

The special weapons (weapons with bonuses) are the weapons produced by government (army). There are connections (dirty cops/soldiers/generals?) who rent out the guns without letting the government find out. What you do with weapons is up to as long as you pay up and bring it back on time before they come for checking the armory.

 

It can be an underground lab too... but yeah I think it's possible to be done
